RE: [EXTERNAL] Re: Windows Application Issues | PostgreSQL | REF # 48475607

Hi Thomas,

Thanks a lot for your previous reply. Still need to double check with you:

You said the Turkey -> Türkiye issue caused by a recent operating system upgrade, you mean this crash is caused by the
changesmade on Windows side? If that is the case, you prefer to leave the bug there? Any plan for the future?
 

Thanks!
Haifang

Hi,

"Crash" with no details is not a very useful report, but I guess that this is the Turkey -> Türkiye issue caused by a
recentoperating system upgrade, which is apparently now hitting the server edition of Windows based on the new inflow
ofbug reports.  I think we know approximately how to fix it, and there are several possible workarounds for a system
thatis already in this state, but interested parties who know and care about the relevant OS need to get involved to
makeprogress.  It's too late for Turkish but ideally we'll be able to stop this from happening the next time a country
changesits name.
 
I have written everything I know about the issue here:

Not being a Windows user, I have not been able to take that proposed fix all the way to the finish line, so all I can
dois post what I know and hope that open source will happen.
